I've always been led to believe he only hit the lamppost when the crime was committed, for what he was convicted off. Like it or lump it, he was an influence in leadng the UVF to the peace table....

Why is it that as time goes by people seem to be able to overlook obvious facts about these so called "peace embracing" Ex-terrorists. Lets remember that they are (or were) murdering cnuts, so tbh, they are all better off dead IMHO. It is just a pity that it's taking some of them so long to expire.

I take it that my bold is in response to my description.
How was he not a criminal, he committed a murder and was jailed.
The use of the word terrorist gives a form of creditability to them, something successive governments have avoided using the term terrorist.
